    Dial up connections on my compac persario. Using aol chats for trading nude pics of pamela anderson or Cindy crawford. Pictures took about 5-10 mins to down load. Sending phishing emails to other AOL email to get them to send their credentials. Being online and some one calls your phone line and kicks you off the internet. Using network drives to cheat in class download music on napster on the school T1 line. Net send commands to your pals in class. I miss the 90’s!

        - The internet used to be amazing, but now it’s dying.

        - What is this?

        - It’s a network that connects computers all around the world, but that’s not important right now.

      Considering a sundowning idiot ran exclusively on the platform that the county sucks, I think we get it.
